Medical Advice From Ozzy Osbourne


The Sunday Times Magazine has been running a regular feature which involves Ozzy Osbourne dispensing medical advice. No, Ozzy is not a doctor, but his column is much better than The Goopster's weekly superficial-ness.

This week Ozzy decided to share how he used to cure athlete's foot while on the road playing. "Funnily enough, in the 1980s I used to cure athlete's foot by pouring cocaine on my toes. They cut the stuff with so much foot powder back then, it was the best treatment you could find if you had an outbreak on the road. The only problem was the price, which was around $3,000 a toe."

See, if this had been The Goopster she would have gone on and on about some friend who has some magical formula that is full of natural ingredients and gone on and on and on. Ozzy just cuts right to the chase. Also, how desperate do you want to be to have some coke knowing they are cutting it with foot powder?

  1. I know people who've sold coke cut with Pro Plus/paracetamol/baby powder. Not only that, they had massive repeat sales.

    Now I've never done coke, or illegal drugs, but surely you'd realise?

    At least Ozzy's still around, although I'm surprised he'd remember that long ago.

  2. Ozzy is awesome!! He has lived through some crazy shit and lived to tell about it. And with a healthy dose of humour!

  6. Nowadays it's quite common to cut coke with baby laxatives. Makes you gassy as hell. One more reason why drugs are NOT glamorous.

  8. I've known people to use Mannitol or Inositol, bot of which can act like laxatives and leave you running for the bathroom pretty quickly. But leave it to Ozzy to snort foot powder!
